"If I book it now, I probably have time to fight maybe one more Wraith, then I can get home and maybe finish half my homework, then sleep, and then maybe finish the other half on the way to class...and before the bell rings."

The white haired boy sat on the edge of a building, his legs swinging freely. Haruka leaned forward somewhat, staring intently at the sky. He sniffed the air, and then let out a sneeze. Aw man, was he coming down with something? He would hate it if he got sick now. He rubbed his nose absentmindedly, sniffling somewhat as he tried to figure out how much time he had left. He knew his mom wouldn't be home for some time, his dad had taken his adorable little sister Kaname out shopping and would be on their way home soon, and he was sure his older brother Koji was probably going to stay over at his girlfriend's house again. He felt the slightest pang of jealousy, taking a folded up letter out of his pocket. Sure, risking his life on a daily basis was no issue, but giving a tiny piece of paper to a certain girl in his class was out of the question. He let out a groan as he pocketed his love letter. Man oh man, he really needed to man up.
